A potentially armed man has barricaded himself inside of Baltimore television station WMAR after crashing into the lobby with a stolen dump truck.
The man initially tried to gain entry to the station while screaming “let me in” and that he was God, according to WMAR reporter Brian Kuebler. When he was denied access, the man got into a landscaping truck and rammed the lobby at least three times.
The truck came to rest completely inside the lobby of the station, according to a tweet by WMAR’s digital producer.
